The effects of adaptive learning in a massive open online course on learners' skill development
Yigal Rosen,Ilia Rushkin,Rob Rubin,Liberty Munson,Andrew Ang,Gregory Weber,Glenn Lopez,Dustin Tingley +7 more
TL;DR: An experimental implementation of adaptive learning functionality in a self-paced Microsoft MOOC (massive open online course) on edX found that the implemented adaptivity in assessment, with emphasis on remediation is associated with a substantial increase in learning gains, while producing no big effect on the drop-out.
